Stevesmissus from Penrith Ok, so dispite the bad reviews i went for lunch only to find that behind the dark ol' main bar there is actually a really nice eatery, just as if not better than the rose that is rated so highly. I got my food served quickly and cooked fresh. The prices are fair and the menu is a typical bistro menu. No doubt i will be back. 1 Apr 2005 Bullpit Billie from Redfern Popped in for a Sunday lunch sept 04. Nice and quiet, humourless bar girly duly doles out beers. 5 of us ordered lunch. The first took 20 minutes and the remaining 4 meals appeared over the next 45 minutes. Apparently the chef wasnt in. So what! Why not just tell us that or apologise for the lateness and quality of the food or perhaps (shudder) offer a round or two in compensation . . . .ordinary! This pub has been bloody marvellous over the years but these years just aint one of them ! 8 Jan 2005 Pub Bludger from Uknow Renovations??...Welll i better toddle in for a gander, G'day me names Nugget wanna cold one? Seriously this was a little ripper of a surprise when i first ventured into this pub..Small couple of pool tables an ex-toppless dancer in one corner (Hot) A hustler from the central coast in the other I wonder what supprises are in store for me now...Perhaps a candid evening with the lovely barstaff wooohoo i'm there- Catchyas 12 Oct 2004 Andrew from Coogee Top spot.. Top service.. Top food..Top of the tops.. Loved the ambience and spunky bar wenches.. 30 Jan 2004 TOWNY from Devon. U.K. Certainly the friendliest pub i have been to. Great tucker and beers were icey cold.Loved the good sorts behind the bar and i thought i was a chance with one!! Great stuff.. 30 Jan 2004 neville from cobar i loved the great looking bar maids and friendly atmosphere of THE DUCK. The new owners have certainly done a huge make-over on the place and i can't wait to go back and have a few more 'ales' a huge steak... 30 Jan 2004 Richie from The RandyPetes Great work Skewy ! Squires are a treat man. 21 Jan 2004 Dylan from Bondi This is the most underated pub in Sydney. Great for quiet drink or something a bit larger. Famous for the party tricks performed by locals usually on a Sunday afternoon. Go there and get on it! 5 Jan 2004
